Connect With IMBA at Outdoor Retailer

Attendees at this year's Outdoor Retailer Summer Market will have plenty of opportunities to pursue their passion for knobby tires, thanks to IMBA’s involvement at the annual Salt Lake City expo, and at the Open Air Demo at Jordanelle State Park in Park City, UT.

IMBA will host the Mountain Bike Village in the Endurance Zone at Outdoor Retailer Summer Market 2011, to be held at the Salt Palace Convention Center in Salt Lake City, Utah, on Aug. 4-7. IMBA staff will also attend the Open Air Demo (Aug. 3) to help inject bike energy into the event, connect with dealers and to support partnerships with leading brands within the bicycle and outdoor industries.

IMBA’s goal with the Mountain Bike Village is to encourage attendees to explore ways to connect with customers interested in cycling and to foster partnerships with the brands, outfitters and destinations that provide great mountain biking experiences and sustainable trails.

Details: Stop by the mountain bike village at the Open Air Demo featuring The Paddle Pedal Challenge, presented by H2O Overdrive and Outdoor Retailer-- a time trial event where attendees will complete a short standup paddleboard course, followed by a 2.5-mile bike leg on a mix of pavement and dirt trails. Points will be awarded based on finishing times and can be redeemed for prizes.
